Word Party (2016– )
2/10
I can't say anything that good.
21 March 2017
I get that it is a show to try and teach little tinies new words, but I very much dislike it. My little brother is almost 2, and picks up words very well, but so far I haven't heard him say anything from it, just say what colour something is.

Their voices made me curl up in a ball when I first heard them. Why must they put on baby voicing that much? It makes me imagine the voice actors cringing when reading lines out.

The animation seems decent at first glance, but something is obviously odd about it. I thought the movements were okay, and so were the textures, but have you seen them talking? First of all, they don't have moving tongues! Just shaded out pink in the back of their throat. I don't know whether that was the odd choice of style they were going for, or if they were just lazy. The animation is just disturbing.

They reuse songs over and over so while sitting in the other room I am just thinking to myself "What, are there like only 4 episodes?".

I suppose that it has sliiiight potential to teach kids words, but through those babied voices it is hard for me to even retain the knowledge of what any word means. I can't imagine my brother picking it up very well ( though, just a minute ago he copied them in saying "big kiiids"but I don't think that is what they were aiming for ).

I think a many negative things on this bane to my ears, but I want to be positive. It is cool that.... they call them big kids ( creepy also ) I guess. Makes little dudes feel... superior?... I don't know. I just...argh.

I find it hard to like shows that could very likely cause my brother speak in a very babied voice. What I don't get about these sort of shows is babies speak in a more melodic, and actually word like way than they do in this show.
